  • Publication number: 20210207470
    Abstract: Wellbore cement compositions can be managed based on material characteristics determined from a cement sample. For example, a cement sample can be retrieved from a wellbore. The cement sample can be analyzed using a plurality of sensors to generate a three-dimensional mapping of particles in the cement sample. The three-dimensional mapping can represent three-dimensional spatial relationships between the particles in the cement sample. The three-dimensional mapping can be compared to baseline three-dimensional mappings in a database. The comparison of the three-dimensional mappings can be used to identify at least one material characteristic of the cement sample. Based on the at least one material characteristic of the cement sample, a cement mixture can be prepared or information related to the cement mixture can be output.
